Description
Critical theoretical perspectives on participation and communication processes in Third World development are presented by leading scholars in this volume. While the perspectives of the book are diverse, the two dominant themes that emerge are: that development communication must be dialogical and transactional; and that it must play a central role in offering new philosophies, concepts and models which facilitate participation of the people in all phases of development.
